CAIRO , Egypt (The Adobo Chronicles, Cairo Bureau) – She’s gone from Hadouken to Karate Kid, from Miss Universe to Samurai, and there’s no stopping ex-Philippine Vice President Leni Robredo from her new passion for cosplay.
This week, the lawyer-mother of three daughters who are all girls, donned the Cleopatra costume while vacationing in Egypt.
Fugitive former Chairman of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) Andy Bautista calls her a “world-class human being” and is very impressed about Robredo’s ability to portray different famous characters. He hopes someday that she can don a leather suit with a leather whip which is Bautista’s admitted fetish.
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – EDCA, the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement, added four additional sites in the Philippines that the U.S. military can use to defend this Southeast Asian country if attacked by external forces.
President Bongbong Marcos approved the new sites.
But Marcos is reportedly reconsidering the entire EDCA after, in his presence, the U.S. military fired rockets and missed its target in the South China Sea not once, not twice, but six times!
Malacañang told The Adobo Chronicles that EDCA will be futile if the U.S. military can’t even hit targets during exercises. “ How much more during an actual attack on our country,” the palace said.
AMSTERDAM, The Netherlands (The Adobo Chronicles, Berlin Bureau) – A group consisting of Metro Manila mayors and officials of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority recently visited The Netherlands for a study tour on sustainable development practices, including cycling as a form of citizen transport and mobility.
If there’s anything sustainable the Dutch are known for, it is cycling. And there’s no better place to learn about it other than Amsterdam.
To prove that their trip is not purely vacation or junket, the mayors of MMDA officials vowed that when they return to the Philippines, they will all give up their luxury cars in favor of bicycles.
“We have to set the example for development projects we implement,” said San Juan Mayor Francis Zamora. Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte seconded the motion.
Metro Manilans should expect a marked improvement in traffic when the vacationers return to the country.
